Answer:
x = 2.25 y = 0.75
Step-by-step explanation:
2x = 9.5- 5
2x = 4.5
x = 4.5 ÷ 2
x = 2.25
know we now what is x so in the second one we evaluate x
3(2.25) + 5y = 10.5
6.75 + 5y = 10.5
5y = 10.5- 6.75
5y = 3.75
y = 3.75 ÷ 5
y = 0.75
that's it !
if you want to check your answer you can evaluate x and y so it will be like
2×2.25 + 5
= 4.5 + 5 = 9.5
and
3× 2.25 +5×0.75
= 6.75 + 3.75 = 10.5
Answer:
- Length = 43 inches
- Width = 12 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2 * ( L + W)
The length of a rectangle is 5 inches less than 4 times the width.
Assume the width is x. Length is:
4x - 5
Equation is therefore:
2 * (4x - 5 + x) = 110
4x - 5 + x = 110/2
5x - 5 = 55
5x = 55 + 5
x = 60/5
x = 12 inches
If width is 12 inches, then length is:
= 4x - 5
= 4 * 12 -5
= 43 inches
Answer:
D) 3 × (40 + 7) = 141
Step-by-step explanation:
(3 × 40 = 120) + (3 × 7 = 21) = 141
